    1/2 c. brown rice
    8 oz. Bolthouse Farms Green Goodness
    8 oz. nonfat vanilla yogurt
    20 oz. water

    It was Monday and I didn't have time to pack the "right stuff". Fortunately I keep enough healthy stuff at our house that when I'm in a hurry and didn't have time to make something more suitable, I have things to fill me that don't make me stray too much from my program. Adding a protein shake made with Amplified Whey Protein Powder (chocolate flavor from GNC) as a mid morning and mid-afternoon snack will help me on the protein goals for the day since there wasn't as much as I would usually have with my mid-day meal.

    Sadly, I flew out the door this AM with everything in hand, except my lunch. So I walked to Subway, got myself an oven roasted chicken salad, with a bit of mozzarella and sweet onion sauce. Lots of spinach and green peppers, and some red onion and cucumbers in there too. Delicious, and though higher in sodium than I had hoped, not bad at all calorie-wise! :wink:

    ETA: And got a 30 minute walk in this way too!

    -large bean burrito (serving of refried black beans, dice tomatoes, black olives, onion, lettuce and hot sauce.
    -another serving of refried beans with the diced tomatoes, black olives and onion mixed in and then eaten with Fritos.

    -and then Mondays are my once a week baking days ( today I made up 6 recipes in a little over two hours whew!), and I also had a spoonful of peach crisp and a French Breakfast donut-muffin (recipe called for a donut pan but I put it in a muffin tin lol).

    I don't track calories, but a rough guess would be that it was around 1,000 calories for all of it.
